What is most common to be undetected and natural? 8cm+ always looks un-natural for femur.
Is 5cm usually un-detectable?
At what CM does it become un-proportional?
At 6 extra CM on my femur, I think I look perfect proportionally. It's hard to really tell where the "upper-body" ends and femur begins, even if you aren't wearing clothes. Honestly, nobody in the world except people on this page even think about the femur-tibia ratio. I do think an absurd amount of tibia lengthening with no femur lengthening could look a little bit odd though.

I can’t judge from the surgery obviously since I haven’t actually done it but I agree that virtually no one is focused even a fractional amount as much as persons on this forum about skewed proportions. There are pretty significant variations naturally and 2 cm more (8 rather than 6 cm for example) on femurs would seem to be virtually unnoticeable by all except perhaps by the person who did the lengthening; just my 2 cents
I saw a picture of someone posting their +8cm mockup, and i thought it was their natural proportions and that they wanted someone to make a mockup for them. Turns out the mockup was indeed the pic I was looking at and I basically did not even differentiate an 8cm lengthening from a natural human proportion
Proportions dont matter & arent as noticeable as much as ppl think

It’s only noticeable if you look for it. I doubt someone who doesn’t know about LL can tell.
Quote from: billsmafia on April 14, 2021, 05:40:45 PMIs it harder to determine proportions when you see yourself every-day in the mirror when doing lengthening?
Yeah, that’s why I gave a range of 5-6cm. I thought my leg proportions actually looked way better than my natural proportions at 5cm. The extra inch is more important to me than the 1 in 1000 chance that my tibia:femur ratio is going to negatively impact me socially lol

For some it is obvious. Example is Germany model Theresa Ficher who got 8cm in femur.
